Vac/Bernoulli.........How?

Strange one, this....but


I've been trying to get to grips with the science of the bernoulli theory to use it in a particular application. I've a vintage car and want to use the exhaust to create a vacuum (ish) to draw fumes out of the crankcase to prevent oil leaks. I've drilled several holes and dropped in several tubes at different angles in an attempt to make the airflow pull air down the pipe.
Can an yone help me decide exactly where the best draw will be (downstream of the thinnest point?) and whether the pipe should point downstream or accross the flow.

TIA
